St. Peter Elementary School

My daughter scored at a 12th grade level on the IOWA test. She scored this while in the 6th grade at St. Peter's. What more can I say about the school.....

I currently have two children at St Peter's and I could not be happier with the level of education that is provided. The school offers a warm and caring environment that my children thrive in. The teacher are top notch and the principal Mrs Feldman is simply amazing.

St. Peter's is very academically challenging with high IOWA scores and they've always done a great job keeping up with current curricula and equipment, given this down economy. The majority of families who enroll their children treat St. Pete's like a private school, not a religious school. Approximately 60% of school families neither attend, nor bring their children to Sunday Mass. A large majority of the children are self-entitled bullies, and the atmosphere has become worse over time. The overwhelming attitude of the teachers is that they are not paid enough to get involved with the emotional welfare of their students. Class changes, recess and lunch are the times when the bullies reign. The Pastor of the church has very little involvement with the school. I think Geneva public schools have more to offer with a safer environment.

The principal, staff, and families are so welcoming and warm - such a great atmosphere paired with stellar academics!

Amazing school with amazing teachers. In addition to the academics, kids learn how to act respectful, honest and polite to others. There is a normal amount of religious study for a Catholic school but I've never seen anything remotely negative about Christian values. If someone wants a secular education with secular worldly values, this may not be the right school.

We have three kids a St. Peter and have nothing but great things to say about the education, environment, staff and families! I am very confident that they are getting a high-quality education!

I pulled my daughter out of St. Peter's in the fall of 2009 due to class size, teacher quality, and heavy emphasis on religion rather than academics. The Geneva Public Schools are way ahead of St. Peter in many areas. The resources at St. Peter do not even compare to her new public school. This was one of the best decisions I have ever made. While the families and staff at St. Peter's are wonderful, the academics, resources, and quality of teachers is much better in the public school.

We recently moved our children out of Public schools to St. Peter. Our youngest was in Kindergarten last year and the teacher is phenominal! Our oldest struggled a bit at first academically, but she quickly caught up and we all love being part of this amazing school!

Our children have excelled at St. Peter's. It is academically much more challenging than what they had in their public school. The principal and staff are caring and instill excellent values and faith into their everyday life. Parents are very involved and it is a loving and caring environment. They do not have the er

I've been very disappointed with St. Peter's. This will be our last year there. There is too much focus on Catholicism and not enough academic strength.
